System solutions and environment

Governments and policymakers face the challenge of developing effective policies that support the transition to a carbon-neutral society. The pressure to implement sustainable and circular solutions is increasing, while the impact of new policies, innovations and technologies is not always clear yet.

TNO analyses the impact of new policies and technologies. We monitor and make recommendations to develop effective human-centered policies. This helps realise future-oriented transition paths for circularity and energy transition.
